Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make manti with pumpkin and minced meat? Prepare the ingredients for the test. Be sure to sift the flour, this will not only remove possible debris, but also saturate it with oxygen, making the product soft and airy. Take filtered and warm water.

Step 2

Step 2
Pour flour into a deep bowl, add salt and mix well. Beat the egg into a bowl. Be sure to wash your eggs before using them, as even seemingly clean shells can harbor harmful bacteria. It is best to use food grade detergents and a brush. Mix flour with egg. Then start pouring warm water into the flour. Knead the dough first with a fork, then with your hands.

Step 3

Step 3
If it turns out too steep, add more water; if it turns out too liquid, add flour. It depends on the quality and properties of the flour. Gradually the dough will begin to become homogeneous. Continue kneading on the table. Knead it for quite a long time, about 10 minutes, then put it in a bag and leave it on the table to rest. During this time, the flour will absorb the remaining liquid, gluten will develop well, which will make the dough more elastic.

Step 4

Step 4
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. You can make the minced meat yourself by mincing the beef through a meat grinder, or you can use ready-made minced meat. I have homemade ground beef.

Step 5

Step 5
Wash the pumpkin, peel and cut into pieces. Be careful — the pumpkin is very hard, it is better to peel it piece by piece.

Step 6

Step 6
Grind the pumpkin in any way convenient for you. You can grind it together with the meat through a meat grinder, grate it on a coarse grater, or simply cut it into small cubes. I chose the grater.

Step 7

Step 7
Chop the onion in the same way.

Step 8

Step 8
Place minced meat, pumpkin and onion in a bowl. Add salt and pepper. You can also add your favorite and suitable spices. And also finely chopped greens.

Step 9

Step 9
Knead the minced meat well. For juiciness, you can pour in a little cold clean water.

Step 10

Step 10
Roll the rested dough into a long sausage and then cut it into small pieces.

Step 11

Step 11
Roll out each piece on a board sprinkled with flour into a thin round layer.

Step 12

Step 12
Place a spoonful of filling in the middle of the circle.

Step 13

Step 13
Pinch two opposite edges, leaving the edges open.

Step 14

Step 14
Fold these open edges towards the resulting edge. And also pinch it well.

Step 15

Step 15
Wrap the resulting corners around the manta and pinch. You will get such a neat manta ray. This is one of the sculpting methods that produces round manti.

Step 16

Step 16
Steam the manti using any available method — in a manty dish, a double boiler, or a slow cooker. Cooking time is from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size.

Step 17

Step 17
Place the finished manti on a dish and serve with sauces — sour cream or tomato. Bon appetit!
